[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ocoegna:
Hi.

I smashed the screen of my Galaxy Note about 6 months ago, and am only now getting around to fixing it. I found instructions about taking apart a Note, which was no problem, and the only physical damage seems to be the screen unit. I also found a source for replacement screen units. However, I'm wondering is it likely that both the (disconnected) battery and the machine's firmware will still be in good shape after 6 months of non-use? Any other helpful hints would also be welcome.

Thanks a lot.

[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] bosth:
My Samsung T989, which was running Cyanogen 10.1.3, recently starting having the problem where I wasn't getting any sound from the earpiece during calls.

Speaker phone works, headphones work and the person on the other end can hear me (so microphone works). But nothing from the earpiece.

I've tried every setting but nothing. I've also tried Cyanogen 11 just to see if perhaps it was a bug that has been fixed, but still no sound, so I assume that this is a hardware problem.

Is there any way of diagnosing this better as either hardware or software? Any known fixes?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Carydc:
WTF is the deal with AOKP 10.1 MR2 and Sound

You are not the only one. Mine the sound other than calls is GONE! I am trying to figure this out. Tried to Flash the ROM from a clean flash with reset to factory and the works and went directly to AOKP ROM Directly with the latest Gapps. No dice. The phone ear piece works but speaker phone and any thing else via the speaker does not work any longer. I am dead in the water here and need a fully functional phone.

This is not my first rodeo. I have flashed many Andriod devices, Cliq+, Nexus S, Nook Color, Acer 500 etc... and the Galaxy S II.

Heck I am also now having issues with the CWM Recovery as well. I can not flash it current. The CWM ROM Manager says flashing and never completes. It has Root privileges. Really has me beside myself at the moment and it is my primary driver so it is interfering with WORK now and really has been ANGRY!

Is it just me or is exchange services hogging the battery in Kit Kat it says in my battery usage that its used 30% of the battery power.?! This was never like this in jelly bean..? Please someone correct me if I'm wrong but is this actually the case.?

Sent from another Nexus..

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whelmar:
it's been reported in the google product forums. Some are reporting battery drain, some having problems connecting to their exchange servers( authentication fails). Other (me included on this) Exchange connects, but push mail is erratic. Also, items read on the phone do not get marked read on the server.

In the mean time, I am using touchdown from the play store (30 day trial) hoping that google will get it sorted. Using touchdown, the battery drain is gone, and push mail works flawlessly...

Frankly, it's the only thing that is bugging me on this phone. I shouldn't have to go to a third party for a solution....

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maconsultant:
Agreed thanks for the word I thought I was crazy.. I'll try touchdown.. I have 3 exchange accounts so my phone never really gets a rest the way it is now. I hope they fix this asap.

I really like the new look....matches the look and feel and functionality of my gmail.

One thing I hate though... I wish it would auto download attachments.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] wynand32:
Actually, I switched to Touchdown on my Nexus 4 running Jelly Bean 4.3 because Exchange Services absolutely killed my battery. Tried everything I could find to fix it, and never could. And from the searches I did at the time I wasn't alone.

So far, Exchange Services is behaving on my Nexus 5, but I'm concerned to see that the problem could come back.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maconsultant:
Funny i disabled the contacts portion of the exchange sync on 3 of my 4 exchange accounts and i DO NOT see this big battery hit anymore. must have been a glitch, i will be watching it closely now..
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] .jond:
I use touchdown. No issues with battery.

Plus it keeps your email encrypted which is kind of important for most companies.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akenis:
I did have a quick 30% run on my battery the other day where email/exchange took about 15%. I have a weird routine of turning airplane mode on and off due to my job. Something got stuck on...

Still got great battery that day. On a normal day I'm seeing 5 hr screen on....wow compared to a rare 3hr day on the Note with 3200 Mahr Anker.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moomingstarz:
Your exchange account is set to push, right?

Go to settings > corporate

Its flicking between syncing and last updated, right? I think its syncing every other second, which is whats draining the battery. I just turned off the sync for that until they release a fix
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Fr3lncr:
Ditto for battery drain issues. I hadn't noticed it as much until today where after 3 hours my battery had dropped 40% and I wasn't even using it. Checked and it was due to exchange services.

I wont go with a third party solution so hopefully this gets fixed soon.

[AT&T Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bataga:
Since we don't have a way to flash anything (and may never will), could there be a thread for devs and users to share stuff to manually push or tweak? I've done this with combining two themed roms from sprint and international forums, but only the themed phone, mms, contacts and touchwiz. Are there things to tweak or add that would normally be built in a rom? I would love to see a thread with some att stuff for us to work with. I would post pics and stuff but I'm not the developer so it may not be okay.

I have been using a skin protector on my phone for some time now, but have started to look for a case to have just in case.. (cough)

I came across this:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/330843591897?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1423.l2649

And I have never seen this type before and thought I would ask the community if anyone has used this case before.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sanderpunto:
I have used it a few months.

It a good case if your phone drops :D

For gaming it's not good the case makes the phone fat :sly:

And it's for phone speakers :sly:

So less sound.

If you want to use the volume buttons they wont work good :sly:

Thank you in advance.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
Decided to buy the case, awaiting final invoice with correct shipping to the US. I emailed the seller and he informed me this case would be his last, once they sell out they are gone for good from him. I bought one and there was 1 left.

Soon as I get the case I will throw my thoughts into this thread and request a mod to move this to Accessories thread.

If anyone with experience with this case can still leave their thoughts here I would very much appreciate it. Thank you.

I do have to say though, that after removing the case A LOT of times, it starts to "bend" and a small gap opens, and dust seems to go in there and ruin the look. I dont know if its just me, the phone or the case. Heres a pic

Ive found using a spare battery plate and some flexible adhesive allows the case to seal up nice, its bendable without breaking and wont grt dust and junk inside.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
So a bit bummed/irritated. Seller contacted me to inform me the case is discontinued and no longer available. Despite the fact he still has a listing on ebay. I'm guessing he decided he didnt want to ship the US.

Can anyone tell me the brand and perhaps the model of this case? I really liked it from the looks and would like to continue to search for it elsewhere.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MRCMidnight:
I have these cases and just bought another one recently, I am also from the US and you can get them at these links, you can choose your kind of case package:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/380388025235 Black mixed case without screen protector

http://www.ebay.com/itm/380769857814 Black mixed case with screen protector

They ship from Hong Kong but I have done business with easyworldwidetrading twice and never had issues. Positive experiences. :good:
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
Thank you for the links, I really appreciate it. Would you be willing to take a few photos and upload here? Would you be willing to tell me what your thoughts are on this case and if you would buy one again or would you go with something else and why? Thank you kindly.

Even though these cases are cheap I really want to get one that people have used and can tell me if its worth getting or not. Ive used both a Otterbox (worst freakin case in the world at least for the XP) and a Trident.... didnt care for it too much.
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MRCMidnight:
I have uploaded several pictures from each side I could best provide, The Xperia Play is a AT&T variant with the use of the pacer carbon fiber skin from the gamepad and the back cover which should not be a problem with the use of the case, it makes the back cover press on the sticker slightly but still give that firm hold.

I did drop this phone a couple times for the 6 months I had with this case and the phone was bought pre-owned, the phone is fantastic still, the case edges does not rub on the pad or the side as the sides a slightly down by a fraction of a millimeter (this could be the case because of the skin on the back cover) but it could be flushed to the pad, visually it looks flushed. I am planning to carry my Xperia Play for a long while, maybe another year before I go on another device, I just gotten the 2nd case from the same seller and same package as you seen from my last reply, the second case has a better quality but each case from I seen can vary if the case comes with tiny defects, it wont be anything to send back for refund. If I want to buy another case I will because it fully protects my Xperia Play other than the open ports and the shoulder buttons but that's a given from any other case other than the Ottercase which I found a review for and my opinion of sholder buttons was the same for me.

There are also case that comes in different colors which I found on eBay and they also have grey, blue, purple, and white. I had experience with case worth less than three bucks and the same dilemma keeps comes back, the teeth of the case are cheap and the quality of the shells scratch even if you don't try to drop it. but unlike the cheap cases, this mixed case has rubber teeth that goes all around the phone to create a large hold which works great, it's hard to remove if dropped and that problem of teeth breaking is solved; the plastic part of the mixed case it durable from scratching lightly and has a space for the Sony Ericcson logo, the color is like foggy transparent white, it's not a problem to me personally and it would look like a slight grey on any phone, from normal room lightly it looks like dark grey. The thickness of the mixed case is the slim on the top of the phone, the buttons on the bottom does not touch the surface and the sides of the bezels are covered by the case, the case bezels does not interfere with the touch operations when I used the phone which some cases do. The bottom of the phone the case is average in terms of case thickness, In my opinion this is because of how the phone has to be curved and creates some resistance

In summary the case met my expectations and has not failed me for over 6 months that I use this case, it saved my phone from drops and will continue to do the job for another 6 months, its slim to hold and fit in your pockets, its a trooper! The case is inexpensive and does the job better in terms of drop protection from scratches though not for huge drops, then a trident would do that fine. I am not a guy that goes out much and goes to college and this case is perfect for me, I recommend this case! :good:
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ozzmanj1:
Thanks for the photos. Really appreciate it. I went ahead and ordered two from the seller link above. I figured for the price its worth it to try them out. Can I ask, the skin on your phone. How are you liking it? The skin over the touchpads? Does it provide a roughness or is it smooth? As I too plan on keeping my play as long as I can, mines a early at&t prototype. So I want to keep it in good condition even of/when I move to a new phone.. One or two years from now
[Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MRCMidnight:
The carbon fiber skin is holding very well for about the same time since I added the case. I owned a previous for my other Xperia Play so I can say with experience that the edges of the skin will peel from the backside, it is much less of the case with the back case on most of the time. I did a nice job on the gamepad but could have done better along the bottom, the top will open some space but the case covers that side up fine. After fixing it I ran a hot air gun over so the adhesive is glued well, still holding great today, I happened to remove the first skin from my first Xperia Play and left very little residence behind. I have not personally used the touchpad for gaming at all so I don't know how it'll do with playing games with touchpad. A prototype phone is blessing to have with you, congratulations! The case and pacer's carbon fiber skin will protect your phone all the way. I'll give you a eBay search where to get them, I bought from them twice, I can't recall the seller.

[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] urksaddy:
first, I just want to say that you are all bloddy briliant and your dedication to making your Universal TRULY yours is incredible.

I have four questions that I GOTS to have answered:

1) Is there a way to edit the dictionary in wm5? I use a lot of legal terms and it would be a great time-saver if I could put a bunch of them into the dictionary so I wouldn't have to type them all the time...

2) Someone made a registry editor for wm5 and I'm forgetting who. I need this so I can remove the damn yahoo.com as the default page on PIE.

3) Relatedly, I customize a lot of settings after a fresh hardboot. is there a way to export my settings (font size, menu items, stuff like that) so I can just click it upon re-install and my preferred settings are restored? I'm assuming that this is a registry backup thing, but am not sure...

4) I need some general cab guidance. I used the "cooked cab" thread (ABSOLUTELY WELL DONE) to give myself a fresh custom software install, but want to include several of the programs I bought with the cooked cab process as well. I THINK I understand how to add them to the config script, but I don't know how to extract the cab files from their setup files (like pocket informant for example) and thus I can't add them to my setup routine. Can someone instruct me how to do that?

Again, thank you for all contributors and my donation is coming momentarily...

As for people who didnt know, you can flash a not 100% complete version of the ROM using Odin, it all works fine, theres just a few things missing, anyway.. if you want to take a look theres a video on the software here
